DENVER

Robbie Ranch in Brighton (North of Denver and easy to get to from the highway)

9:00 a.m. - noon (welcome to stay later)

This organization is a ranch that works with disabled children and they are just getting started.  The Robbie Ranch Day Program is in need of volunteers to help get the new property ready for the season. 

There is a lot to do to maintain the grounds and the horses.  No experience is needed to work with the horses.  Anyone who is allergic or prefers not to interact with the animals can help with ground work.  There is plenty of outdoor work to do in preparation for their spring/summer riding program.

They need volunteers who can:

1. Rake leaves
2. Clean up
3. Build fences and shelters
4. Move things around
5. Know anything about concrete or electrical
6. Brush and clean horses
7. Clean saddles and horse equipment
8. Do lots of other little odds and ends
9. Paint


Please join us for this fun group activity and help out a worthwhile organization!  Please dress in layers and wear good shoes.  We will be doing outdoor work that is fairly laborious.

Located in the north part of Brighton.
